[PATCH] Reduce number of pointer dereferences in IPv6 netfilter LOG module function dump_packet()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



By adding two pointer variables to 
net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_LOG.c::dump_packet() we can save 19 bytes of .text 
and many pointer dereferences.

before:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   6258     600    3088    9946    26da net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_LOG.o

after:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   6239     600    3088    9927    26c7 net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_LOG.o
